The main purpose of this study is to establish the status of a bailiff assessor while performing the function of a deputy bailiff in the labour law. The research spectrum revolves around the search for an answer to the question of whether a deputy bailiff-assessor, appointed under Article 43(1) of the Bailiffs Act, retains the status of an employee, since he acquires the status of a public authority in the performance of professional duties reserved for the bailiffs. No provision of the Bailiffs Act gives a clear answer to problematic questions. which is why the author makes interdisciplinary considerations. He exegeses the provisions of the Bailiffs Act and the Labour Code in the field of the characteristics of the employment relationship using the formal-dogmatic method.
